I run two 12v computer fans on my DRZ400E. Brushless and sumersible. Cheap as chips and never had one fail yet after 14000km.

Wait, are you saying all 12V computer fans are immersible?

Only the brushless units. I can only speak from my personal experience as i've had the fans underwater several times on this bike with no ill effects. They are light and mine are held onto the core with zip ties!

Care to post an Amazon or NewEgg link to the fan(s) you use?

Do I really have to? The things are 10 bucks each FFS. Do some research,buy em fit em and try it out for yourselves. Why does everyone have to defend their decisions on this site? cheeeesh.

Sorry pal, generally I understood this thread to be about testing things that aren't used as intended (such as converted dual sports). Tried and true vs. having a fan that fries itself.

I didn't expect such an easy favor to become a major task to you. It was more of a tried-and-true thing that I, and I'm sure others, would use vs. defending anything. But hey, if you're all about others maybe picking a bad brushless fan model that may not hold up to water as well as yours, throwing away $10 or $20, and getting stuck with no cooling out on the roads and trails, then I say fuck it - we suckers deserve to learn the hard way, too.

...

Such a wrong thread for that attitude, lol.

Any 12V brushless computer fan will do the job well.
Temps out here stay over 40*C for 4 or 5 mths of the year, and these things run fine.
I normally hook mine up to a simple switch, but a temp switch will work too.
